Empty Bed Blues, Pt. 1

歌詞

I woke up this morning with an awful aching head I woke up this morning with an awful aching head My new man had left me just a room and an empty bed Bought me a coffee grinder, got the best one I could find Bought me a coffee grinder, got the best one I could find So he could grind my coffee, 'cause he had a brand new grind He's a deep-sea diver, with a stroke that can't go wrong He's a deep-sea diver, with a stroke that can't go wrong He can touch the bottom, and his wind holds out so long He knows how to thrill me and he thrills me night and day Oh, he knows how to thrill me and he thrills me night and day He's got a new way of loving, almost takes my breath away Oh, he's got that sweet something and I told my girlfriend Lou He's got that sweet something and I told my girlfriend Lou But the way she's ravin', she must have gone and tried it too When my bed get empty, make me feel awful mean and blue When my bed get empty, make me feel awful mean and blue My springs are getting' rusty, sleepin' single like I do Bought him a blanket, pillow for his head at night Bought him a blanket, pillow for his head at night And I bought him a mattress, so he could lay just right He came home one evening with his spirit way up high He came home one evening with his spirit way up high What he had to give me, made me ring my hands and cry He give me a lesson that I never had before He give me a lesson that I never had before When he got through teachin' me, from my elbow down was sore He boiled my first cabbage and he made it awful hot He boiled my first cabbage and he made it awful hot When he put in the bacon, it overflowed the pot When you get good lovin', never go and spread the news When you get good lovin', never go and spread the news It'll build up to cross you, and leave you with them empty bed blues
